Nimsoft Unveils New Online Portal to Drive IT Service Management

REDWOOD CITY, CA--(Marketwire - December 19, 2007) - Nimsoft, Inc., the "Big 4" alternative
for IT performance and availability
monitoring solutions, today unveiled the NimBUS Enterprise Console
'2.0,' a powerful online portal. It incorporates the next generation of
intuitive dashboards
built using Rich Internet Application technology that delivers dynamic
views to help users track the health of their technology environment. The
updated dashboard designer boasts new functions, such as a drag and drop
capability to create extremely complex views with ease or the ability to
fully customize backgrounds by adding different color schemes quickly. As
companies continue to invest in IT infrastructure initiatives, particularly
in the area of virtualization, the need to regularly and clearly monitor
the underlying technology becomes even more demanding. The console will
dramatically underscore the value that IT delivers across the business by
empowering users to easily access real time IT service delivery information
from any location.

Dashboards are a central element of the NimBUS Enterprise Console 2.0 and
Nimsoft is the first IT performance and availability monitoring company to
develop its entire dashboard offering using the advanced capabilities of
Adobe Flex. The result is a stark contrast to the flat, two-dimensional
dashboards commonly used. The sheer volume of information and data that
needs to be monitored has begun to place a strain on static dashboards to
accurately display and convey all the necessary information. By comparison,
the use of graphical images in the new NimBUS dashboard to reflect an alarm
state allows users to instantly assess the changing status of the IT
infrastructure. The result is a dashboard that displays a wealth of new
data in a simplified and insightful fashion.

The NimBUS Enterprise Console has been designed to meet the needs and
requirements of both IT professionals as well as business users. The
inclusion of an extensive designer toolkit allows IT professionals to
tailor the way information is organized and presented to the wider
business. For busy executives, the Nimsoft Enterprise Console offers a
quick and easy way to view key IT service data in a manner that resonates
with them. Key information can be rapidly accessed through the Enterprise
Console using any browser that supports Adobe Flash, which has become the
de-facto standard. The Enterprise Console is the first step in Nimsoft's
vision to create a truly interactive online experience that will see the
addition of mash up components.

"Our dashboards have always set Nimsoft apart from the competition. The
inclusion of new Web 2.0 dashboards simply widens this gulf. The new
dashboard technology will allow users to gain an even more comprehensive
insight into their IT infrastructure. There are also a range of additional
features that will appeal to large enterprises and mid-market companies
alike. Importantly, the dynamic views will create greater trust and
transparency between the IT department and the wider business as users can
easily equate system availability with end user satisfaction. The adoption
of rich internet application technologies moves our dashboard offering into
a new league and ensures that our customers are equipped with a workspace
that provides more than just a window into their IT environment," said Gary
Read, president and CEO, Nimsoft. "Enhanced infrastructure management
comes about through the subtle combination of a robust monitoring engine
and an intuitive graphical display. With the latest version of NimBUS and
the investment that we have made in our new dashboards, we have delivered
the necessary components to allow businesses to upgrade their
infrastructure monitoring capabilities. It is another example of why more
and more customers are turning their backs on the Big 4 and opting for a
simple yet sophisticated monitoring solution from Nimsoft," he added.
